Aquino Doubles With Aces

Rainier Aquino has just survived a big all in clash for his tournament life. After reraising preflop with {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}, Aquino committed his last 5,000 on a {8-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} flop and was dismayed when Chang Yong Suk snap-called. However Suk would need to improve with his {J-Clubs}{9-Spades}.

The {K-Clubs} hit the turn and the {10-Spades} fell on the river, and Suk thought he'd won the pot when he made his straight however Aquino quickly pointed out he'd made a bigger straight to double up and stay alive!
